Why teams switch to Gladia

Built for the accuracy bar required for clinical documentation

A misrecognized drug name or diagnosis code isn't a quality issue — it's a liability.

Clinical accuracy

One wrong drug name, real consequences

Gladia recognizes medical terminology, drug names, and ICD codes accurately, with custom vocabulary support for medical terminology — no model retraining required. That accuracy is what stands between a clean record and a documentation error with real consequences.

  • Accuracy on key entities
  • Custom vocab for industry terms
  • No model retraining required
Compliance

Built compliant, not bolted on later

Vocabulary failures aren't just bad user experiences — it's a HIPAA and patient safety concern. That's why compliance can't be an afterthought. HIPAA compliant with BAA available, SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified, zero audio retention by default — compliance that's ready before you write a line of code, not negotiated after a procurement cycle.

  • HIPAA compliant, BAA available
  • Zero audio retention by default
  • SOC 2 Type 2 & ISO 27001 certified
Speaker attribution

Right speaker at every utterance

Once the words are right, who said them matters just as much. Gladia separates doctor and patient speech reliably, even in noisy, multi-speaker encounters — so attribution in the record is correct the first time.

  • 3x fewer diarization errors
  • Reliable on clinical crosstalk
  • Doctor-patient separation
Clinical workflows

Live during the visit. Structured after.

Ambient scribes need sub-300ms streaming during the encounter, then full async accuracy to turn that into a structured SOAP note after. Gladia handles both with one API key and the same output schema with no second STT vendor to architect around.

  • Sub-300ms during consultations
  • Full async accuracy post-visit
  • EHR-ready structured output
Multilingual patients

Accurate across every patient language

Expanding to new languages is one of the top reasons healthcare builders switch STT providers. Gladia covers 100+ languages with native code-switching, so accuracy doesn't drop as your patient population diversifies — no separate model or setup per language.

  • 100+ languages, one clinical API
  • Native code-switching for bilingual visits
  • No per-language model retraining

Challenge

More than half of clinician time was going to documentation, not patients

A fast-growing healthcare AI startup needed to reduce the 60%+ of clinician time spent on documentation, while meeting strict HIPAA and GDPR requirements. Big Tech cloud providers failed to balance accuracy, speed, price, and security.
